I have to get data from a kinect, and to compute some angles.

So, I have this code that worked perfectly in ros Groovy, Ubuntu 12 and now I have to change the machine and work with indigo Ubuntu 14.04. Its the same folder, the same procedure but it crashes when i launch it, and I am not able to find out why this is happening :(

[listener_tf-1] process has died [pid 11824, exit code -11, cmd /home/andrea/catkin_ws/devel/lib/listener_tf/listener_tf __name:=listener_tf __log:=/home/andrea/.ros/log/dcee0976-c7d7-11e6-b6d6-083e8e6b82c1/listener_tf-1.log].log file: /home/andrea/.ros/log/dcee0976-c7d7-11e6-b6d6-083e8e6b82c1/listener_tf-1*.log

There is not a log file in the directory that it says it is, btw :(

I have done the "comment and uncomment stuff" to identify the error, and I know the thing is right in this part of the code (It crashes if either the sprintf line or the listener.lookupTransform line are uncomment):

for (int i=1;i<10;i++)
    {
        int n = sprintf(persona,"%d",i);
        /** itoa convert integer to string (non standard function
         * sprintf(target_string,"%d",source_int) */
        try
        {
            listener.lookupTransform("/openni_depth_frame", "/torso_"+std::string(persona), ros::Time(0), torso);
            break;
        }
        catch (tf::TransformException ex)
        {
        }

Here is the full code, thank you in advance !

Check the docu for sprintf: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cs... "The buffer should be large enough to contain the resulting string." So initialize 'persona' with a sufficient length. It's also a good practice to use english variable names so that people can understand your code better if you ask for help.

thank you! I initialize it like char persona[10| instead of char *persona and it worked!

PD: sorry for the spanish
